For a few years in the 1970s, the Mr. Asia syndicate made millions.
Heroin creates its own market. It acts like a form of plague.
Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down.
Clark would have threatened him. Go and kill him. If you don't, I'm going to kill you and your wife and your son.

From the ZM Podcast Network, this is Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley's Big Pod. Thanks to Animates,
making happy happen for pets. ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Thank you Bryn.
Good morning.
Welcome to the show Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Happy Friday.
Do you know what?
I'm feeling so happy that it's Friday.
I've got an idea.
What about instead of Friday we say something like Fry-yay?
Because I want to say like yay it's Friday.
Vaughan your take?
Nah.
Really unimpressed Vaughan there.
Nah.
My favourite thing is on a Thursday, Fletch,
when you say happy Friday Eve.
I hate that too.
I love it.
It's silly.
I bet, that's silly.
You love it.
Now the top six is coming up.
Vaughan, what have you got for us today?
Well, you may or may not have heard that Ashburton,
the South Island hamlet of Ashburton.
Oh, the hamlet.
I like to call it a hamlet.
Wow.
Which is what we called towns before town became a thing.
Sort of like an upsized village.
Had a slogan, make Ashburton great again.
Now, based off the make America great again.
Yeah.
And the...
It didn't go down well, did it?
It didn't, no.
So this was Ashburton, Meryl Hopeful.
Jeff Ryan who put this as his slogan,
Make Ashburton Great Again.
So it's a political slogan that we've seen before
from someone who's quite controversial.
So he announced that MAGA was going to be his slogan last week.
Make America Great Again.
On read.
Same vibe.
Ashburton, okay.
Donald Trump's Make America Great Again.
Not a great one.
So I've got the top six.
Are the actual slogans.
These are actual.
These were actual company slogans
that were terrible, terrible ideas.
And not just tiny companies.
Big companies.
Nope.
We're going to hear from the likes of Reebok.
Would you say ooge companies actually?
Ooge.
Ooge. Ooge. Okay, companies, actually? Ouj. Yeah.
Okay, it's coming up in the top six.
Secret Sound, thanks to Super Liquor,
we'll give you the next chance at 7 o'clock and 8 during our show today.
$15,000 is the activate.
You've just got to guess the sound.
I got a facial yesterday.
Win the cash.
Oh, my God.
I'm so sorry I cut you off.
That's okay.
No, carry on. You had a facial.
Well, it's about the Secret Sound.
I had a facial yesterday and she was like,
have you got any clues up your sleeve?
And I was like, we don't know, we don't know.
She's like, it is tormenting my day.
Yeah, someone asked me at the gym.
I was like, no, I don't know, we don't know.
And this is why we don't want to know
what the secret sound is.
Yes, I was like, no, we don't know for this very reason.
Because I will literally go halfs with you and tell you.
Like, I'm so corrupt.
My facialist was like, she's dedicated don't know for this very reason. Because I will literally go halfs with you and tell you. Like, I'm so corrupt.
But my facialist was like,
she's dedicated 15 minutes a day to it.
She's like, no, I've got to stop.
She's put a tonne.
She's like, I can't.
I'm pouring over it.
I love that.
Well, your next chance to get through is coming up at seven.
Next on the show,
if you order pizza and you've ordered a little bit too much,
a great meal to reheat.
Most of us go microwave.
Yeah. There's a better pizza
reheating hack. It's pronounced
microwave. It is. I'm so sorry.
I'm so dumb. Apology accepted.
Play ZM's Fleshborn and Hayley.
If I order too much pizzeria,
is pizzeria? Yeah, pizza. Most people
say pizza. Oh, well, most people are common
and I'm fancy. Me and my three
brothers, when we grew
up in the sewers of New York City
under our
mat.
Are you a turtle?
Are you a turtle? I was a turtle
but now I'm sort of a turtle.
How did you go from turtle to man?
How'd that happen? I believe a nuclear
waste. It's within the secrets of the ooze
in the sewer. Raised by
our rat master censor. Oh for god's sake.
And father figure splinter.
Stop it.
You could never order too much pizza, man.
They love the pizza, man.
We loved it.
Cold bunk.
I'm really good at ordering the right amount of pizza.
I'm really good.
In fact, when we have a party or drinks,
we are great at ordering pizza.
Both of us nail it.
We nail it.
I purposely order too much.
You see, for some later and then some the next day.
I'm just going to put this out there.
Yeah.
So there were drinks the other night.
You weren't there, Hayley.
No, I wasn't.
I actually wasn't invited.
I won't say who.
Actually, no, you weren't.
I won't say who.
Was I invited?
No.
We don't bother anymore.
Which is very rude.
There was a large group of people.
A large group of people.
And the person hosting, and I won't name and shame them.
Well, yeah, but you listening, you'll know him.
Yeah, you'll know.. Yeah, you'll know.
He said, I'll get pizza.
You're telling me Matty McClain has undercatered another event
because his wedding was undercatered.
Oh, my God.
I forgot about that.
Okay, he's like, I'll order pizza.
And we're all like, yay.
And then, you know, you hear the ding dong.
Yum, yum, hungry, hungry.
Yay.
Whole, you know, giant room. I'm. Yum, yum, hungry, hungry. This whole, you know, giant room full of people can eat.
I'm happy and I'm not even there.
I was invited, by the way.
So was I.
It's fine.
Then he comes back from the hallway with two boxes of pizza, two pizzas.
And there would have been like 15 people.
I'm having one of those to myself.
What did he not?
You're not talking like the limo was.
No, it was just a standard pizza. And we were all just kind talking like the limo one. No, just a standard pizza.
And we were all just kind of like, well, I guess we all just have a piece.
Oh, that's not enough.
Actually unacceptable.
He's running a lot.
Yeah, he's slender.
But when you're running a lot, he needed to carbo load.
It was a bit like, oh, okay, well.
What flavours did he get?
Oh, good flavours.
They were good flavours.
What?
Yeah, he went like fancy.
Like a chicken cranberry, which, you know, I love a chicken cranberry.
That's my favourite.
Is that why?
Was it a budgetary restriction?
Time's tough.
No, I don't know.
I think he just thought two would be enough.
Let's say the budget is $50 for pizza.
I'm going to get more of the, like, just go pepperonis.
Oh, we do that.
I'll always get the cheap pizza.
But a thin base. We always go thin base. So'll always get the cheap pizza. But a thin base.
We always go thin base.
So you can get more of them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So you can get more of them.
And I'm not going fancy.
This is a family pizza night.
This is a roast,
a public roasting.
It's just a bit of
a public roasting.
Wow.
He is so lucky
I didn't decide to go.
Yeah, actually.
Imagine if we turned up.
I would have been like
another classic
McLean under catering.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, there is a hack that's going viral if you do have leftover pizza in the fridge.
Yeah, which I love.
Not a problem at Maddie McLean's house, apparently.
Usually either, Aaron.
Not a problem.
Never going to be a problem.
Actually, I'm ordering more.
I'm topping up.
He's hating us.
He's going to be so upset with you, Vought.
So, usually, Aaron will eat it cold from the fridge.
Yeah.
And I'll just stick it in the microwave for a little bit and have a soggy little
rubbery.
So you've got a microwave.
Do you put a thing of water in?
No, dog in the microwave.
And then my brother
once air fried leftover pizza
for me and I was like, air fried.
Sorry, she went to a
private school. She's thinking of a fryer
as in a monk type creature.
Friar Tuck.
I air fried this piece of pizza and I was like, oh my God, game changer.
So now I'm air fryer.
Yeah.
New hack.
New hack for the pizza.
Which I think is what you're about to say is what I do before it goes in the air fryer.
Dunk it.
In water.
I spritz it in water.
Oh yeah, spritz makes more sense.
No, the hack.
Like it's a baby and I'm baptising it.
There's this Aussie fitness coach.
And you know what?
Yeah, I'd be fitness pizza in my mouth.
I love that she's a fitness coach and she's like,
we're going to have pizza.
Well, she's being realistic.
Have some respect for your body.
Like, you only get one knife.
Eat a broccoli.
Shut up.
So she said that she actually gets the slices
and she dunks it in water.
So not a spritzing, not a steaming.
I like that.
A full dunk before air frying or microwaving.
And it turns out, she says, as fresh as you bought it.
Yes.
This is great.
Air fry it because it's hot.
And it's not like the microwave makes it rubbery and an oven is going to take too long.
I've heard of people who fry it in a pan.
Yeah, yeah, I've seen that with a little bit of water in the pan.
Yeah, yeah.
With a bit of butter, jeez.
Here we are.
When he lets loose, he's got health all during the week.
Yeah, we deep fry it.
To reheat it, we deep fry it.
And why not dip it in a batter if we're deep frying it?
And use some butter as well.
You're carrying on like it's your birthday today, Vaughan, and it's not. It was yesterday. Was it yesterday, was it? Yeah, rain butter as well. You're carrying on like it's your birthday today, Vaughn,
and it's not.
It was yesterday.
Was it yesterday, was it?
Yeah, rain it in.
Am I being a brat?
You're being a little bit of a brat,
but I'm actually here for it.
Sometimes what the listener doesn't hear
is sometimes I just pull the fingers at Fletch
and I just do it just to be a little bit of attitude.
It feels really good.
Yeah, yeah.
Do you want me to read this?
Because I've actually read it.
Have you?
Yeah.
Well, I was just going to put it into ChatGPT
and ask it for bullet points
and then read it like I had read it,
but I'm just kind of improvising on the spot as I go through.
Well, it's ironic that you're using ChatGPT.
Basically, we're in a day and age of AI
that it's becoming so advanced
that doctors have had to accept
AI knows more than they do.
And AI is now, on a paper level, better than doctors.
And I read this article going, oh my God,
all my medical friends, they studied for so long.
They paid so much money.
Like, what are they going to do now for a job?
I mean, you know, an AI can't bloody give you a prostate exam.
You know, an AI. Well, yes. But, an AI can't bloody give you a prostate exam. No. You know,
an AI. Well, yes. But it could instruct me how to give you one.
What do I do now, AI? Give me
one. Insert finger.
No, thanks. Do you not have one?
I mean, it's just going to compliment. Do I have a
prostate? It's just going to compliment
their work, isn't it? Really.
Do women have a prostate?
That's a dumb question. Of course not.
He hopes. No, women do not have a prostate.
I know, but I just suddenly started questioning that.
That'll be why
you're losers.
That'll be why
you all get paid less.
You guys should get prostates.
Have you thought about getting prostates?
I have been thinking about it.
The best part about them is they're a time bomb.
At any given moment,
they can turn into a horrendously cancerous item.
Yeah, maybe not.
Maybe avoid it.
So there's a guy, his name's Ian McRae.
He has stage four brain cancer.
That's a terrible diagnosis to get.
And so he's become very invested in the idea of healthcare.
He's the founder of Orion Health.
He is indeed.
According to my bullet point here from GHCPT.
He is.
So he's got this terrible thing, but he works in the health sector
and he's like, I need to figure out how to cure this.
He can't.
He can't.
Well, you know, you can't.
But he's already going like AI is so much better than any human can do.
All the machines,
you don't actually need the people anymore.
Yeah, but you do need the people.
Exactly, you do need the people.
Although a lot of it's becoming self-testing.
You know, like pap smears,
you can do those on your own now.
STI checks, you can do those on your own now.
Rest examinations, I can talk you through it.
Who's safe now going forward with jobs?
I have heard about people that
Or programs that have been written
Using AI to identify
What kind of cancer for example it is
Which can take a while but from scans
And it can go
From analysing all the other scans
It's got all in common with this one
There's a 95% chance it's this
Like that
Boom
That was someone's job And a very very chances this. Right. Like that. Boom. So, but, yeah, so that was
someone's job. Yeah. And a very,
very highly
skilled technical job. Yeah.
My thing, I was like, okay,
the people that are safe are creatives.
Because, you know, we've, it's like,
you know, like ideas
and performance, and you're like, no.
They were, but. They were, but you can use the voice.
Do you know what's amazing?
Back to this guy.
So he is a real tech nerd.
And he was like, okay, I've got stage four brain cancer.
He put all this information into AI.
And AI was like, if you keep going how you are,
you have 14 months and you'll be dead.
And that was three and a half years ago.
And so he's used AI along the way to help him
basically like extend his life.
Wow. It's kind of crazy.
It's amazing.
I immediately thought of Dr. Shawnee, who I did
message yesterday, because I think it's fungus.
You've got
another rash. I've got a rash under
a ring that I wear, and I've worn this
ring for a long time. See, this is why AI won't
replace doctors, because doctors'
friends won't be able
to hassle AI.
All I did with Dr. Shawnee is
I sent a photo of the fungus
and I said, do we feel like this is fungal?
And then we had
a little back and forth and then he gave
me a diagnosis
of fungal but he said chuck some hydrocortisone
on there. Shocking Dr. Shawnee would say that.
I could have just uploaded that photo to AI and said I had the same thing
and actually not disturbed Shawnee's day.
Yeah, but you wouldn't have got a lovely personalised response, would you?
I could have said when they said to me it's fungal, put hydrocortisone on it,
I could have said warm it up a bit, make it nicer, and AI would have.
Right.
Yeah, and I could have also said, you know, tell me I'm pretty.
But how far away are we seriously from that?
Because you can take a photo of a plant and it'll analyze it
and it'll tell you what plant it is.
And then if you've got a sick house plant now, there's an app,
and you take a photo, it identifies the plant,
it identifies what's wrong with the plant,
and it tells you how to fix it.
I don't know, honestly, years, like not that many years away.
So if you're balls deep right now in a medical degree
or you're still paying off your six-year study at medical school.
Drop out and get into radio.
Now there's a career that's not going away.
Play.
ZM.
Fletchvorn and Hayley.
We cross to Shannon who's going to take us on a journey to the lake
in a lovely gay way.
An ally for sure, right Shannon?
Wow.
That's my swan noise.
That wasn't too bad.
That wasn't too bad.
That's not what a swan...
Vaughan, can you YouTube?
Can you look up a swan?
No.
We need to compare it.
It was definitely a bird noise.
It sounded like a sick seagull, to be honest.
Do you know what?
It sounded like a seagull who's had its wing clipped by a car.
Yeah.
And it's on the side and it's deciding whether or not to die.
While it still eats a hedgehog.
But it's still eating something absolutely feral, yeah.
Yeah.
She was remarkably close.
She was pretty good.
Don't interrupt the actual swans.
Yeah, hang on.
So we go actual swans.
And Shannon?
Hey.
You guys have knocked her confidence.
She said hey.
She went hey.
I don't know.
That's all swans are saying.
Hey in a high pitched South African accent.
Now you've got some gay swan news for us this morning.
Yeah, so do you remember how I told you about the gay sheep?
30% of them are gay.
Remember, I follow them on Instagram.
That's right.
That was the thing.
30% of all sheep are gay.
Yeah, are either bi or gay.
Yeah.
And rams, we're talking male sheep.
Yeah.
Gay.
No lesbian sheep.
I don't research lesbians.
I'm just strictly on gay animals.
Wow.
We're in the radio station for lesbians.
What have you got against lesbians?
It's just my area of research.
Apologies to our lesbian listeners.
To be fair, I've been doing a lot of lesbian research.
So I feel like we're balanced.
Is that what you call it?
All bases covered.
You know, I've been doing my own research.
Yeah, me too.
We hear that thrown around a lot these days.
But I've put hours into it.
Please go on.
My doctorate in lesbianism will be prepared
by the end of the year.
Back to Shanna.
I have been working on my thesis of gay animals
and I've come across another animal who is very gay.
Pretty gay.
Black swans, 25% of them, gay.
Just black swans?
Just black.
Black swans are more gay than white swans?
Yes. Okay. This is a cultural black. Black swans are more gay than white swans. Yes.
Okay.
How are you backing this up?
Google.
Right.
No, hang on.
Where was the information?
Hang on, hang on.
Where was Shannon here?
Initially TikTok.
Okay.
But I Googled for once.
The gay sheep, I will say, all TikTok.
Right.
But today, so 25% of black swans are gay.
For reference, humans, only 3%.
Oh.
It always blows my mind when happy pride month for swans.
Maybe they should be on the flag too.
Let's get them a spot on the flag, a little beak or something in the corner.
Do you know black swans have a 6% divorce rate?
That's pretty good.
That's really good.
Because humans, we're rocking 51 to 52 these days.
This is where I'm taking you with my gay fact.
So lots of them are gay, but here's
where I just was absolutely
blown away. 80% of
gay couples raise their swans
successfully. 30% of
straight couples do it successfully.
So straight to the problem.
Straight to the problem. And so how these gay
swans happen. I was going to ask where they get their babies from
because biology tells me that, yes.
How does it work?
It is so interesting.
So they basically, two gay swans come together
and they're like, we want a baby.
Let's call them Daryl and Brett.
Daryl and Brett.
Daryl and Ben.
Daryl and Ben.
Daryl and Ben.
It was Daryl and Brett but they broke up
Brett's gone
They decide that they love each other very much
and then they look down at their little
things and they're like this doesn't work
Wait I've got the same thing you've got
How are we going to do this?
You're not explaining this to five year old Shannon
Well Daryl and Ben go over and they're like
well Shazza's looking pretty good
Shazza? Okay That's a female black swan over and they're like, well, Shazza's looking pretty good. Shazza. Yeah.
That's a female black swan. Yeah, so
Dazza goes over to Shazza
and seduces her. Oh my god,
Shazza. Knocks her up.
Yeah, she's pretty easy, Shazza. So pretending to be
straight. Pretending to be straight. Knocks
Sharon up. Sharon's up.
Little swanny comes
out. And then...
That's a goose.
Also, it does... That's a goose. That's a goose.
Also, it does... She lays an egg.
Birds come out in egg form and then hatch.
They don't come out as birds.
Good point.
So...
The egg comes out.
Egg comes out.
Yep.
Dazza steals baby Swan, raises it with Ben.
Shazza's now childless and she's been left.
And she has to do that thing where
everyone's like, how's Dazza? And she's like, oh my god, he was gay.
He was gay for so long.
But it wasn't me. I didn't do it.
No, I knew something was off
and we never really connected
in the way that I wanted to. He's gay.
But according to the research, there are a lot
better parents than the straight Swans.
80% success rate.
So women are the problem.
I love your algorithm is just gay animals.
Yeah, well, it's my thesis.
I'm studying.
I'm getting a PhD.
It's crochet.
The gays of the animal kingdom.
Yeah, well, I decided, you know, broadcasting degree, sure.
Post grad, animal gayness.
Gay animals.
Right, animal sexuality.
So you'll have a degree in broadcasting with a side of gay animals.
But doctorates are always called something like wordy,
so it'll be like...
Dr. Gay.
It'll be like Gay Swans.
The thesis.
An inside study into how the da-da-da, you know,
you get wordy with her.
Also be careful Googling black gay swan.
Some adult stuff comes up first.
Because of the Mila Kunis Natalie Portman.
Be careful. Which has been part of my
studies.
Play ZM's
Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
Play ZM's
Fletch Vaughan and Hayley.
From the Notes app on Vaughan's laptop,
this is the Top 6.
Make Ashburton great again.
That's my idea.
Said mayoral hopeful.
Am I saying mayoral hopeful?
Mayoral.
Who says mayor?
Is it mayor?
Mayor.
Mayor.
Are there going to be elections everywhere and billboards again?
Yeah, they need to ban those outdoor billboards.
Yeah, yucky.
So this dude, Jeff's like, yeah, make Ashburton great again.
That's going to stick.
And then later on was like...
Yeah, a bit of a backlash there.
Yeah, a bit of a backlash.
So he's not a Trump supporter.
He says, I look at him and think there's a lot of good he does.
So he is a Trump supporter.
But he undoes that good with a lot of crazy comments.
And I think he's reckless as a politician.
I think the American political situation is so not funny.
Do you know what I mean?
In terms of, like, we laughed at Trump the first time,
but now we're all just a bit like, oh, that sucks.
Yeah, it's not something to aspire to, right?
Yeah, totally.
Well, not the first time that somebody's got a slogan wrong.
I found six other examples of terrible slogans used by companies.
Number six on the list was Reebok's 2012
campaign that said,
Cheat on your girlfriend, not your workout.
Now these
are actual, infinite slogans.
These are actual company slogans.
And how did that go down at the time?
Well, they thought it was going to be great.
They started in Germany, but before it even got
out of Germany, it received global backlash, to which Reebok later said,
they don't condone cheating in any way,
be it on your workout or your girlfriend.
Okay.
Number five on the list.
But if you are going to cheat.
Do it to the missus, not the gym.
I was going to have a cheat day, just on everything.
Oh, yeah, that's fair.
Food, no workout.
Wife, food, gym.
Everything.
But as long as it's only one day a week.
Yeah, it doesn't count.
It's actually quite a fun relationship set up.
Yeah.
Cheat day.
Number five on the list of the top six terrible slogans
that were actually used by companies.
Weight Watchers said,
dieting doesn't work, Weight Watchers does.
You are a diet.
That is what dieting is.
Yeah.
Did it go down well?
Did not go down well.
And then they kind of had a moment of self-realization
that they are just sort of a diet program.
Yeah.
And so they pulled it.
Next, number four on the list of the terrible slogans,
a pretzels company released this.
In 2010, Pretzels, a company that makes pretzels
that is also called Pretzels
released a skinnier pretzel
like a half pretzel depth wise.
Oh yeah.
So technically each pretzel
half the amount of calories.
Okay.
You can never be too thin
taste as good as skinny feels.
Oh!
Pretzels.
Wow.
Very famous Kate Moss quote.
Yeah.
They pulled the plug.
Nothing tastes as good
as thin feels.
Yeah.
One of the most
toxic sentences.
And then I'm like,
handbag,
chuck,
bacon,
chocolate,
burger,
pasta,
straight butter,
cookies,
yum,
booze.
Number two on the list
of the top six
terrible slogans actually used by a company. We go to Bic, the pen manufacturer. Booze. Number two on the list of the top six terrible slogans actually used by a company.
We go to Bic, the pen manufacturer.
Great pens.
It was International Women's Day.
I could go wrong.
Oh, my God.
I remember this.
I remember.
A poster of a woman with a Bic pen.
It said, look like a girl, act like a lady, think like a man, work like a boss.
Now, that went through, I'm guessing, more than one person. I'd say so. Think like a man. I'd say so. Think like a man, work like a boss. Now that went through, I'm guessing, more than one person.
I'd say so.
Think like a man.
I'd say so.
Think like a man.
Look like a girl.
Oh, it's this.
Act like a lady.
Wait, what year was this?
Like recently.
Oh, God.
Because I remember the big scandal with the pink pens for girls.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The ladies range.
I'm all good with a blue pen, dude.
And number one on the list,
it is a hashtag,
but it's a slogan
and generally regarded
as a terrible misfire for marketing.
I could be talking about
none other than the launch
of Susan Boyle's album.
Oh my God.
Now, if you're not familiar
with Susan Boyle,
it was a hell of a time.
She went on Britain's Got Talent and she shuffled out looking like a crazy old cat lady
and then belted out Les Mis like you've never heard before.
And people were crying.
It was amazing.
So she immediately got a regular.
Now, the hashtag, the unfortunate choice of hashtag made by her PR team was hashtag
Susan Album Party to promote the new album.
Yeah.
However, it also looked like it said Sue's anal bum party.
Look.
I think they knew.
I think they knew.
I think they knew.
If they knew, genius move.
If they didn't, how did you miss that?
I mean, marketing.
We're still talking about it.
It's still doing it.
20 years later. 12? 15. Do you reckon that was? What mean, marketing. We're still talking about it. It's still doing it. 20 years later.
12?
15.
Do you reckon that was...
What year was it?
Oh, I don't know.
No, no.
I remember it.
What year?
Oh, my God.
It's so good.
16 years ago.
Yeah, 16 years ago.
Okay, wow.
Sue's anal bum party.
So good.
Sue's anal bum party.
That's what they said.

Another plane crash earlier this week.
Yeah, this is a plane crash.
It was a Delta flight crash on the 17th.
It's the one that they came in.
The footage is unreal.
They just seem to be going all good.
Hard landing.
Wheel snap.
Then it skids because it's a snowy runway.
Yeah.
And a wing breaks off, which rolls.
The other wing breaks off and then it just
and they end upside
down. When it was
coming down, did it
know that it was going to crash?
No. Or was it just landed? They haven't
decided the cause of the crash but I think
it just landed so hard that the wheels
just gave way. And then it just flipped it.
Yeah. Oh god. Now someone that was
on the flight
is a Reddit user
and they hosted an Ask Me Anything
about the flight.
Amazing.
The footage of people coming out
with their full overnight bags.
Now, we're told to leave everything behind.
Also wild, though,
that you would have had to get
your overnight bag from the locker,
which would have been at your feet,
which would have been...
Yeah.
You would have had to open the locker
and then it would have been like...
Yeah.
How would that have worked upside down
if you're standing on the roof?
It opened to the ground.
It opened to the ground.
But it...
No, no, no, it doesn't.
Or would it...
No, it opens up.
It opens up, so you'd have to...
So it actually would have made it harder
to walk on the ceiling.
No, it would have opened like that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Grabbed it out
because it was upside down.
I was like,
that's the number one thing we're told.
Leave your things behind.
Also, if I've got a tiny bag, I'm getting it.
Oh, my God.
I'm trying to, I'm condemning them to, but I'll grab mine too.
It's got my laptop in it.
Also, the person that filmed them getting out of the plane was kind of.
And I love it.
They're like, put your phone down.
He's like, nah.
This is going viral.
Yeah.
So someone, a flight attendant asked,
could you describe what happened which led to the incident from your perspective?
From my perspective, there was no lead up at all.
It felt what seemed like a violent jerking motion from wind
just before we touched down.
So they didn't know.
And we touched down hard, then bounced back up and started to skid.
I'm not sure how or where we rolled or when,
but I was over the wings and I could see the orange glow from the fire
through the right side windows.
We skidded for what felt like a short time,
but there was a lot of screaming.
Though I remember thinking it sounded like we were underwater.
Everything was dulled.
When we stopped, there was a brief moment of silence
before everyone started trying to release themselves
because they were upside down.
Those of us who could get ourselves out did and then helped others undo theirs.
We didn't see the flight crew where I was based on the plane,
but they were doing their jobs near the exits.
I could see that they were panicking
as we were and they did
everything just to get us out as quick as possible
because everybody was running and then
we ran from the plane because we were waiting for a fireball.
Good morning to our listeners that are just heading
off to the airport listening to us now.
Oh my gosh, I know.
Aaron's got a fear of flying
and he was like I haven't read the news for a while. I was like, don't. I know. You know, because Aaron's got a fear of flying. And he was like, oh God, I haven't read the news for a while.
I was like, don't.
Don't.
Don't.
Don't.
Yeah.
Don't read it.
What were some of the other Reddit questions?
Upside down.
I know.
A wild A.
Somebody else asked, I was in the military for quite a while.
And I was wondering if it was disorientating, the crash.
Because that's a big part of our training is that if it ever goes down,
it's going to be disorientating, the crash, because that's a big part of our training is that if it ever goes down, it's going to be disorientating.
My seatmate said, because I got out first, they got out first and looked around.
We were all hanging like bats.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Thank God you had your belt on.
Yeah.
Because if you were rolling, you didn't have your belt on.
You'd get chucked around and you could die.
They said the flight attendants manned the exits, but like passengers were the main people that helped other passengers get out of their seat.
This is why when you see a 90-year-old frail person in the exit window seat
with all that leg room.
What are you going to do, Nan?
Do you know what I'd be like?
I'd be like, I'm going to carry this person out of here.
And the guy's filming.
I'm like, turn around and get a shot of this.
Carrying a 90-year-old woman.
Yeah, and then roll your sleeves up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Pop the sleeves.
Maybe take the shirt off altogether. Don't want to catch fire. Skin-to-old woman. Yeah, then roll your sleeves over your biceps and that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Swap the sleeves.
Maybe take the shirt off altogether.
Don't want to catch fire.
Yeah, your skin-to-skin contact's very important.
Mum has just messaged saying,
thanks, I'm off to Christchurch today.
No, Bev, you'll be fine, darling.
You'll be fine.
I wouldn't want to be going to Wellington, Bev,
but Christchurch, fine.
How did you all get out?
And the worst thing was,
when we got out onto the runway,
we all just had to stand there.
And a lot of us didn't have shoes on because when you fly,
you kick your shoes off and you don't put them on until you've landed.
No, I always make sure I've got my shoes on for takeoff and landing.
And then some people had fuel on their shoes.
And the smell was real bad.
So we were like, if this goes up, our shoes are going to be,
like the whole thing was just the fuel.
Someone said, what was your first thought when you managed to gather your thoughts?
It was, well, I'm going to die.
Yeah, totally.
I was sitting in the aisle seat above the wings, which snapped off during the crash.
You could see the fire.
I was like, you...
Yeah.
Remember the one that hit the end of the runway and it just, just fireball.
Yeah.
So they're like, we're rolling.
Of course, we're going to explode.
But it didn't...
Well, I mean, I guess the lucky thing is the fuels in the wings and they snapped off.
Yeah. Yeah, and they snapped off. Yeah.
Yeah, but they snapped off.
I would have thought they would have exposed the fuel
to the sparks of metal on runway.
Yeah, but they would have been left behind, right?
Yeah.
Oh, my God, wild.
Anyway, it's an incredible read.
So there were 80 people on the plane.
All 21 really injured people who were in hospital
have been released as of a few hours ago,
and Delta have come out,
and they've offered each passenger $30,000 no strings attached.
Or wait for legal action and get more.
Yeah, that's the thing, right?
No strings attached feels like,
well, let's find out why this happened.
Your dad made a good point though, didn't he, about this?
He said, if you're going to be in a plane crash,
hell of a plane crash to be in.
Looked real cool and you got to walk away from it.
Totally. And you got the story of, you remember that plane crash to be in. Looked real cool and you got to walk away from it. Totally.
And you got the story of,
you remember that plane that roly-poly'd down the airport runway?
I was on that.

If you're having a bath, what do you do while it fills up?
That's today's silly little pole.
It's weird.
It's weird.
Well, Shannon saw this on TikTok, I believe.
And there was a girl who was, like, dating a guy. Is this right, it's weird. It's weird. Well, Shannon saw this on TikTok, I believe. And there was a girl who was like dating a guy.
Is this right, Shannon?
Yeah.
She started seeing a guy and then opened the bathroom door
and there he was just naked in an empty tub as the tap was just...
There is not, as a man who really bathes,
one of the reasons I don't sit in a bath,
wildly unattractive.
Yeah.
Nobody ever looks sexy in a bath.
No.
Girls do.
Girls do.
Because we put up like one knee
and we sort of lounge.
One knee goes up
and it's sexy and there's bubbles
and the boobies kind of float up a little bit
and you're like...
The lift you get in the water.
But guys...
You're kind of junks floating around.
Yeah, you're ballsing.
You're ballsing trying to float past your penis
and the penis is just like,
I'm not as buoyant as you.
Get in line.
And it's kind of like,
and then it hangs over the buoyant scrotum.
You wait until the bath water is in
and then you get in.
Well, yeah, the TikTok created
an international deemed ick now.
All the girls are saying this is such an ick.
The comments agreed,
but then there was a few people being like,
wait, I do this.
So I thought it would be a good solo. If I was a woman, I just
wouldn't want to see my man having a bath.
Unless it was Henry Cavill and there was bubbles.
I have one, I will never show you.
I have one really funny photo of Aaron
in a bath. Now this is a 6 foot 6 long
man with very long legs. Yeah.
He's so stupid. Yeah. Like he's too
big for every single bath. I know.
Legs are Kimba. It's one of the funniest photos.
We had to get a smaller than standard bath to fit.
Yeah.
So then you're like...
And now I feel like Aaron in a normal tub.
Yeah.
It's horrible.
So this was our question today for silly little Paul.
If you were having a bath,
what do you do while it fills up?
Do you get in while it's empty
and sit in it as it fills up
like some sort of weird freak?
Or do you wait outside
and get in when it's full and bubbled up?
Yep.
You've got to do that thing where you're like
bit more cold.
And then the junk goes in and you're like
and then you start sweating.
And you're sweating. I'm sweating in a bath.
Immediately sweating so after the bath you have to have a
shower. Well 88% of people
said they wait outside and get in when it's full
and 12% will get in
when it's empty and sit while it spills.
Which is what my kids do.
No, August will start running a bar.
She'll just sit in it when it's got an inch in the bottom
and I'm like, just wait till it's full and she's like,
I like the whole experience.
I'm here for the whole experience.
Some feedback
on it. Sarah says sometimes too impatient
and get in when it's halfway full and then just
sit there while it's filling. But I don't like
the hotness on my toes.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
We've got a side mounted tap.
Do you think...
It must be nice.
And when you turn it on, it just runs straight under your bum.
Yeah, it must be nice.
Do you think people do this because they do not anticipate how much they will fill up
the bath and there's maybe overflow?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So then they can stop it at the perfect height?
Because your body weight, you take up a lot of volume. The displacement.
Yeah, the displacement. Yeah, I take up a lot of volume.
I'm really trying here.
And it's showing.
I've cut back on like
retreats. I'm just saying there's still plenty of volume.
I'm still saying I'm going to get in the bath and it's going to overflow
on the sides and then I'm going to cry into the bath
causing more water displacement. I'm going to say that actually
instead of I've gained weight, I've actually
increased in volume. I think it's just softer. My water displacement numbers are up going to say that actually, instead of I've gained weight, I've actually increased in volume.
I think it's just softer.
My water displacement numbers are up.
Yes!
That sounds great.
Yeah, that sounds great.
That sounds great.
Oh my God,
imagine sitting in an empty tub and waiting for the water to fill.
Please no.
Illegal, absolutely not from Caitlin.
Okay, that's a no.
Don't stand there getting cold.
You go from your warm clothes
into a warm bath.
Yeah, when it's full and ready.
Yeah. You're still going to be cold when you clothes into a warm bath. Yeah, when it's full and ready. Yeah.
You're still going to be cold when you're sitting in a bath.
But it is funny when you're standing by the bath waiting
and you're already naked and waiting.
Yeah.
You timed that all wrong.
You're all wrong.
Nicola said, I let it fill halfway, then get in
because it means I won't overfill the bath
and I get to adjust it to the perfect temperature
while I still have room.
Oh, yeah, that sounds like they've got a mixer.
A perfect mixer.
Yeah.
And you move the thing around, you're like, there, get it right.
Polly says, I'd burn alive if I got on while it fills.
It takes at least two cold water shock fills and an additional fill before the water is only mildly scalding to be sat in.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I saw a picture this week of a guy who did step into a bath without,
his feet were like proper burnt.
What?
Oh dear.
Who's not testing the water?
Proper burnt.
Just jumped in.
Yeah.
Like no good.
I wait until it's about a quarter full, says Geordie,
and then I get in.
I need to know whether or not it's going to overflow.
And then she does two crying faces.
So I think her water displacement numbers might be up.
Might be up.
So that's all right, babe.
So am I.
It's okay.
That's a good number.
Ours go up and down all the time.
Wait, but controversially,
I quite like to empty it while I'm in it.
Same.
Oh yeah, okay, yes.
When you were a kid, eh?
When you were a kid and then it gurgles?
Yeah!
And you put your foot over the plug hole.
Yeah.
And it goes.
And then with a little bit of water, I used to go, woo.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, Steph, we're on board with this.
I haven't done that as an adult, but that could totally be a thing.
Yeah, that's fun.
I get in while it's filling up, said Ashley.
Can have a hotter bath that way.
Body gets used to the hot temp quicker, and I end up slightly cooking myself.
You're not getting shocked.
No.
I'm not a lobster.
I don't need to sit in a pool of hot water
as it fills up
and burns me alive,
says Nubes.
I'll wait to do that
all in one go.
You've got to freeze
your lobsters actually.
I froze mine this morning.
you'd know about your lobster.
This is such a funny story.
Such a stupid rhetoric
that I have lobster
every morning for breakfast.
Every morning for breakfast.
But no,
you freeze them.
Boiling them is actually inhumane.
Yeah.
Is that how you like to end the life of your lobster?
So when I go pick up my daily lobster.
From the daily lobster.
From the daily lobster.
Yeah.
Yeah, you put it in the freezer to kill it.
Yeah.
Wow.
Much more ethical that way.
So the lobster's just like, oh, this is chilly.
And then goes to sleep.
Gone tired of going to sleep.
As opposed to bubbling to death.
Instead of screaming.
It's dark because the door's shut.
He's very cold and there's a couple of peas
and he's pinching them being like,
it's a pea.
That's a pea.
That's a bean.
That's a carrot.
That's a carrot.
That's a corn.
Oh, we've got a packet of mixed veg here.
And then he just shrifts off to sleep
with a little bit of corn in his claw.
Yeah.
He has no idea.
What a way to go.
Right next to the fish fingers.
Yeah, right.
I was having a conversation
With my mother yesterday
About how we'll
End each other's lives
If we ever get a
Debilitating disease
And we get turned down
For euthanasia
Maybe this is what I'll do with her
I'll chuck her in the freezer
And put some corn in her hand
Yeah
Be like
No no
No no
She crawled in there herself
Yeah
Will be my defence
Yeah yeah yeah
She'd lost her mind at that point
Look she ended it
All the mints and saucies
and she's jumped in herself.
By a couple of old bananas,
I swore I'd turn into a banana cake.
And she's holding a handful of peas
and a handful of corn.
Just drifted off.
Anyway, that got dark.
That got really dark, didn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
A bit funny.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Project Pan is a huge trend on TikTok at the moment
in the makeup community. Which is like, it's like, really?
No, not Peter Pan.
It's not like green sort of glitter.
Cooking fry pans?
Not frying pans.
Okay.
No, it's a saying you guys probably haven't heard,
but when you hit pan, when you've got a favourite product
and you're like, oh no, I've hit pan.
I've still got no idea
what you're talking about. Well when you think, can we bring the girlies
in? I just need a little bit of allyship here.
So when you hit pan
it's you know
how most makeup products are in like a
slim tray. Oh so this is a makeup
specific. Makeup specific and you've got your little
tray say it's a blush or an eyeshadow or something.
I'm loving your nails. Thank you darling.
Yeah they are gorgeous.
Thank you, thank you.
Very silver.
Can we get a picture on the socials, please?
Yeah, why not?
Also, they were done by my friend Sophie who listens to the show
and she's always like, I love the phoners.
I love it when people phone in.
So she's going to be excited.
Well, she's the one coming up and it's one that I've wanted to do.
We've wanted to do this for a week now and it's finally made the cut.
Sophie, you just brace yourself.
She loves the phoners.
Sophie, prep yourself.
Does that mean she just doesn't like us?
No, no, no.
She loves the whole show.
Oh, my God.
Stop being so Gen Z.
That is so insecure.
That was so insecure.
You found a negative in it.
That was so insecure.
I'm just insecure.
She just loves it when people, she's like, the stories.
I love it.
Anyway, what was I saying?
When you hit pan on your favourite thing,
it's like you've used up the product so much
you're back down to the aluminium tray.
The pan.
I've hit pan.
Okay.
And usually, because we live in this world
of over-consumption, greediness,
we're just buying, buying, buying,
the Project Pan trend is being like
you are not allowed to replace your make-up products
until that pan
is basically empty
or like anything
I've seen girlies
doing candles
because you know
we're all a sucker
for a candle
we'll buy one
because we think
it's yum
and then you want
to use scent
and you're like
yeah we haven't
used up the first one
or like
you've got to be careful
you've got to leave
a centimetre
otherwise it'll explode
you just told me that
this morning
in our talk notes.
Then I like to melt
all my centimetres and pour them into one.
I've got another candle in my hands.
I use an old shoelace up the middle
as it works. That doesn't work.
No you don't.
No you don't do that.
I literally have a room of candle making supplies at my house
because I need to.
Your girls make them.
But I think this is a good
thing. I do this all the time.
I don't do this trend. I mean more
I'll use a product and then I'll be like, nah, I'm over there.
I'll get a new one. And then I've just got
and makeup expires. That's the other thing.
So you should be using what you have.
It's made out of cheese.
No, it expires. It's got like 12 to 6 months.
Yeah, so like anything that goes
on your eyes about 6 months or cream products are less than 12.
What's in it that explains?
It's bacteria.
You're putting it on your face every day then back into it.
Oh, you grubby bitch.
It's grubby, right?
Why don't you wash?
I am very grubby.
Wait, you're not just grubby.
Not you specifically.
God, no, please.
I didn't just call it Gen Z grubby.
I do apologise.
It's the bacteria you're putting from your body into the makeup.
So it's nothing in the makeup itself.
Okay, right.
If you look at any makeup product, on the back there's a little symbol
and it kind of looks like a tub of cream.
Yeah.
And it has either a 12 or a 6 on it.
It's not a number 18.
Mascara.
Imagine mascara.
You're using mascara.
You're putting your eye goobies in there.
That sounds like BS.

Why don't you wash it?

Wash your mascara.
That could actually be...
Oh my God, this is so embarrassing.
Should we take this off here?
Yeah, can we take this off here?
Why don't you wash it?
Can I see you guys in the girl math chat?
Because I'm honestly sick of this too.
Yeah, we'll go back there.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
No, because you wash a paintbrush.
Yeah, but you don't wash mascara.
Yeah, but then you'd be putting water back into a makeup product.
Well, try it before you put it on.
What have you got?
Two brushes.
Oh, God.
We wake up at 4 a.m.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm washing my mascara.
I'm just trying to cut back on life.
I'm going on, on, on.
Wash, wash, wash.
Dry, dry, dry.
Dunk, dunk, dunk.
On, on, on.
You've got no clue.
I've started project panning, but then I get sick of a product,
and so I just use heaps.
Like, I don't like my condition, so I did, like, four applications.

Now, it was during Shellfish Week for a fact of the day
that we started talking about otters
and we all universally agreed.
Very, very cute.
I sent you a video in the group chat yesterday
of the otters chasing the butterfly.
Oh my God.
How cute.
It was like five or six otters chasing a butterfly.
It's still my desktop background.

So it was during that that we kind of started talking about,
you know, sea otters are real cute.
Beavers I like.
Beavers are big fat ones.
And the flat tail, you were a bit funny about, Hayley.
A bit funny about, yeah.
And then I said I would love to see in real life a platypus.
I've seen one at Australia Zoo when I was a kid,
but I remember it being real small and a little underwhelming.
And they said, oh, yeah, this is a small one.
I want to see a big full-sized platypus.
And that was when Hayley was like,
no way, they give me the ick.
I was like, what is it about?
Is it the bill?
Is it a furry creature having a hard bill?
They're not right.
They're just not right.
It's different to the MOTH thing.
That's a phobia.
This is like, it's so yuck.
By the way.
Don't, I can't.
I'm not in the right head space.
Block your ears for a minute.
I started up my lawnmower the other day for the first time in a while
and this moth flew out and it was the size of my hand.
Oh, you're okay now, Hayley.
You can take, done.
You would have hated that.
Yeah, good.
Thank you for the respect that you've shown me here.
Hey.
But the platypus, it's so yuck.
It's not yuck.
It's super cute.
It's super cute.
That is so wrong.
Like, that is the most off animal.
It's got a bill.
It's a bit of a furry duck.
It's got, like, clawed hands that have got, like, venomous tips on them. I'm getting the shoe store.
I know.
You have to go platypus animal.
But are they having a sale?
Because I could do with some snakes.
You know they've always got a bid on sale.
We could pop out after the show. I was thinking
going in and trying on some shoes there and then finding
them cheaper online. Do you know what it's like?
It's like the animal has
just gone full steam through the
water and got stuck in some kind of crock.
Yeah.
Some kind of small footwear.
I love them

It looked like someone put it in a Nutribullet. It's disgusting.
Oh, stop.
That gorge.
I want to know what animal gives you the ick. If it's like
because I know, I've got goats
and some people are, yeah, I don't want to talk about your
typical animals. Rats are yuck.
This text in. All animals
are precious children of the universe
and deserve respect, but pugs and bulldogs
should not exist.
They shouldn't and that's on us.
That's on us.
We did that.
Humans did that.
We ruined that wolf.
Not pugs, but...
We've ruined so many wolves.
Yeah.
When you're walking around this weekend and you see a dog that's, like,
struggling to open its eyes or its face is smushed like it's run into the back of a car,
we did that to a wolf.
Someone said a platypus is a duck trying to escape from a beaver.
That's perfect. That's perfect that's perfect
that's a great
summation of facts
we want you to call
0800 DALES AT M
9696
maybe this is a big
phobia for you
or just an ick
because I know
some people
my goats
yeah the goats
and I'm like
what is it about
where do the horns
come from
why are their eyes
like that
why are they looking
at me
or maybe you've got
an ick with anything with a horn yeah it's just the do the horns come from? Why are their eyes like that? Why are they looking at me? Or maybe you've got an ick with anything with a horn.
Yeah.
It's just the horns.
The horns are weird.
How they come from the head.
They come out of the skull.
Is there a horn growing gland in there?
And what does that look like?
That's a bit yuck.
Does it hurt when it comes out?
Oh, Vaughan's been wanting to talk about this for a long time.
0800-TARZANEM is the number.
Text in 9696.
What animal gives you the ick?
There's so much swearing in the text machine.
People are really racked up about these animals that give you the ick.
The platypus is off.
It's off.
It's honestly a mistake.
Perry the platypus.
No.
It's so good.
You give it a name, it doesn't make it better.
Ah, okay.
What animal gives you the ick?
Centipedes.
Somebody's mentioned it.
Oh, yes.
Like when you see them walking and all the different segments have multiple legs
and it's all such a smooth, it looks like a Mexican wave,
we don't call it that anymore, down the side of the animal
and it's somehow moving forward.
Yeah, disgusting.
That's a mistake.
It's not right.
Sarah, what gives you the ick?
What animal?
Oh, it's the frog.
Nobody likes a frog, do they?
Actually, no one likes a frog.
Do you know what?
I'll have a frog.
I won't have a toad.
What's the difference?
Toads are bigger and wartier and a bit more booty.
Oh, yeah.
But frogs can be cute and delicate.
No, but Sarah, for you, is it the anticipation?
Because my thing is I can look at it, but then it just jumps.
Yeah.
You know... Did you know they screamed?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, I've seen that.
This has been a fact of the day once upon a time,
but I'll chuck it in here for you, Sarah.
The reason Ribbit Ribbit is the frog is because Hollywood needed a frog sound,
so they just found a local frog,
and apparently it's one of the only frogs in the world
that was based in California that made that Ribbit Ribbit sound.
But how do they normally sound?
Oh, no.
No, thanks.
That's all you've...
And they let you know about it?
Yeah, it's yuck.
I'm glad we don't have too many around here.
They just spring at you.
Who hates the frogs?
No, but you don't see them all the time.
You don't see them.
Not in the Auckland CBD.
Yeah.
You know, not down at the waterfront.
Exactly.
Thank you, Sarah.
Caitlin, what animal gives you the ick? The Tasmanian devil. Yeah. They're not down at the waterfront exhaling. Thank you, Sarah. Caitlin, what animal gives you the ick?
The Tasmanian devil.
Yeah.
Caitlin, that's a top five for me.
I am wildly offended on behalf of my Tassie devils.
Because the cartoon led us wrong.
They're ugly little things.
Like wombatty rats.
Yeah.
No.
Exactly.
I should have done that.
The Australian version of the honey badger.
Look at it screaming.
No, you're right, Caitlin.
It's yuck, eh?
Oh, Caitlin.
What is it about it that you don't like?
My dad used to work in Tasmania
and he used to bring back the cutest little Tasmanian devil toys.
And then I went to Wellington Zoo
and I was all excited to see the Tasmanian devil in real life.
Oh, my gosh.
What the heck is that?
What is that?
That is not a cute little soft animal.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're so right there. It's a rogue little sock animal. Yeah. Yeah, you're so right.
It's a rogue little Aussie battler.
Nah, he's disgusting.
Did you get the noise?
Because the noise, the first time you hear the noise is,
because that's why they're called devils,
is because people would hear them.
Because they scream and they thought they were banshees.
I'm very quiet at Wellington's though,
but yeah, absolutely terrifying to see in person.
It was a real letdown.
Okay, thank you, Caitlin. What animal gives you the ache? Caitlin, I saw you. You were a bit of real letdown. Okay, thank you, Caitlin.
What animal gives you the ache?
Caitlin, I saw you.
You were a bit of a letdown.
No, I didn't mean it.
That was mine.
How dare you?
I take it back.
She just offended a very good friend of mine.
I know you're upset.
I love someone just messaged the baboon.
I'm on Team Caitlin's side.
I'm on your side, Caitlin.
Thank you, Caitlin.
No, you're upset.
She's crying.
Yeah, well, there you go.
Someone said the baboon,
worst kind of nappy rash.
What's wrong with you?
Yeah, yucky bums.
Yeah.
Yucky bums and they look at you in the eyes and you're like, no, thank you.
Human babies.
Yuck.
Fletch, did you text the show?
That's good.
That's good.
Now someone's come for the capybara.
Someone's coming for the lovely little cute capybara.
The capybara is like the Tasmanian devil
if it went to therapy and learned to manage its stuff
and just kind of got a bit cuter, you know?
Yeah.
Yeah, but I like them both.
Ooh, the anteater.
Somebody messaged us.
Oh, yeah, the anteater in real life once,
and it made me gag.
Made me gag.
Llamas and alpacas, the neck, the teeth, the eyes,
the spinning, the rudeness, the noise they make.
It's all very unsettling. They give me the spinning, the rudeness, the noise they make. It's all very unsettling.
The rudeness. You're not alone.
Someone else texted in, mother effing llamas.
That's all they said. I love them.
They're cute. Silly things. Big necks.
Eels. The way they look
in the water and they stare at you with that white
dead inside eye thing and their teeth
and plus always scared they're
going to launch themselves out of the water.
They're a real danger noodle.
Danger noodle.
Danger noodle.
The descriptive words people are using.
A slippery danger noodle.
I'm suspicious of sawfish.
Suspicious of sawfish.
Why do they need a long nose like a saw?
There's no wood down there in the ocean.
What are you using that for?
Why are they calling it a saw?
Isn't it a swordfish?
Yeah, it is a swordfish.
Is there a swordfish?
Is there a fish with a saw nose?
The big swordfish. I mean, I think
you might be thinking of a swordfish.
No, it's a sawfish. Is it with a saw nose?
When would they ever see those?
Disgusting. Or carpenter shark
because he comes with a saw on his nose.
He's a carpenter.
Well, they are icky though.
They're a bit yuck.
Yeah.
I've had a full-grown live tarantula on my face intentionally. I love spiders, but centipedes, it's just a no, no, no.
Dogs.
Dogs give me the massive ick.
They smell and they spit all over the place.
And I only think everyone loves dogs.
And so, oh, yeah, you should definitely put up with this thing
jumping and sniffing your crotch and dribbling on your crotch.
Oxolotls.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Agreed.
Someone says armadillo.
Why?
Just why?
They're awful.
I love an armadillo.
They roll into a ball.
That rules.
That's a mistake as well.
That's in the mistake category of animals.
Emus are ostriches.
Now, I'm not a tall person, so the thought of a giant bird
pecking my eyeballs out from above gives me a huge
gives me a huge ick.
Has anyone said giraffes?
No, not yet. Who could hate giraffes?
I know, I know, I don't hate giraffes,
but I could just imagine just a
long neck. Someone says guinea pigs
give me the shits. Oh yeah, guinea pigs,
no, yeah. They're a bit off, eh?
Yeah. Someone said hairless cats.
Yes.
I mean, I love cats so much, but hairless cats?
And then that's the big test.
Do you love the cat or do you love the hair?
I love the hair.
It's the hair you love.
It's the fluff.
It's the fluff that I love.
It's the hair.
The fluff.
F crabs.
F crabs at the beach.
Hideous a-holes.
And then they just go down a hole. Yeah, they just nip you and they're like, bye. Bye crabs at the beach. Hideous a-holes. And then they just go down a hole.
Yeah, they just nip you and they're like, bye.
Bye.
Koalas.
Oh, don't you dare.
That's my favourite animal.
Someone can't get koalas.
My favourite animal won't hear a word.
Yes, they've got chlamydia.
It's a different kind of chlamydia that we don't get.
It is.
We can't get it.
Their chlamydia is different to our chlamydia.
Yeah.
We've got our own separate version of chlamydia.
There it is.
Turkeys.
Yeah, turkeys are off.
Zebras.
Someone said zebras.
Why?
They make a weird sound
and they've got weird, what do they do those patterns for?
What do you need that for?
What do you got that for? You crazy, Frank.
Seems ridiculous.
Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley.
Play ZM's
Fletchborn and Hayley.
I'm actually a little bit guilty of all of this.
There's two things that you may be doing
in your texts, in your messages that are making you seem a little bit much. all of this? There's two things that you may be doing in your texts, in your messages
that are making you seem a little bit much.
And now as a woman who is
quite a bit much.
Quite a bit much.
We're not even saying little anymore.
Quite a bit much. How is she?
Quite a bit much actually. I'm
guilty of this. It is
the use of the period, the
full stop, and the use
of the exclamation mark.
I'm bad at this too. So for example,
and they're using this in
the context of texting someone who
maybe you don't know that well. So if
I'm messaging you, I'm not really thinking about.
Your exclamation marks. I'll pick you up soon.
Yay, can't wait for
tonight. Exclamation, exclamation, exclamation.
But amongst friends, I thought it was an exclamation mark.
Amongst friends, fine.
But if you say you're going out, you're meeting someone new,
or like we've just had a date, Fletch.
It was great.
I'm in my Uber heading home because I've decided not to show you on the first night.
Okay.
Which is wild.
Fresh for me.
Yeah.
Which is a new thing I was trying at the time.
And I send you best full full stop, date, full stop, ever,
exclamation mark.
Too intense.
Yeah, that's too intense.
Way too intense.
Even just saying best date ever,
without the additional thing, that's a lot.
Yeah.
So they say when a period is present in a text.
Can we say full stop?
Oh, gross.
No, no. Yucky, yeah. No. The menstrual cycle. How do you full stop? Oh, gross. No, no.
Yucky, yeah.
No.
The menstrual cycle.
How do you think you came to be on this planet, Cal?
It's just American.
It's an American.
Period.
Period.
Full stop.
We say full stop.
We say period when we mean like,
I'm not going, period.
Yeah.
Okay, full stop.
When you put a full stop,
the sentence is broken.
It's jarring.
It's hard.
It kind of comes across as aggressive.
It's a bit much.
And it makes you, you're a little bit much, basically.
And so you're less likely to get a text back.
And it was a little bit more casual, a little bit more fluid.
Yeah.
So if you're like me and you're hitting everyone with a full stop or a period
or an exclamation mark all the time, it's a bit much.
Pull back.
Chill.
Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley.
Hayley's pick today for Friday Flashback is a song that has to be at least 10 years old.
Yeah, I will say this came out in 2004, so I've hit the 10 years old mark and ran away
from it.
I wasn't into it at the time.
I was 14 and I was being a bit punky and gothy and weird.
Yeah.
Okay?
So this was pop music, but I remember this song and the video.
I loved it.
It did amazing around the world.
And the reason I have chosen this is because Jesse McCartney has announced that he and
his partner are expecting a baby. Georgia Burt, were you and Jesse McCartney has announced that he and his partner are expecting
a baby. Georgia Burt,
were you a Jesse McCartney? Was he
a heartthrob for you?
Sorry, I have to make that sound. He
was all over my walls. He was
everywhere. How could he not be?
In 2004, he was like
shaggy hair, like blonde,
cute, and he wrote a beautiful
song about a beautiful soul. It was, cute. And he wrote a beautiful song about
a beautiful soul.
It was about me. It was about a beautiful soul.
Wow, and then now next weekend
you're going to marry someone else.
Jason McCartney, do you not know?
What? What if Jason McCartney
turned up right now and was like,
yeah, yeah, whatever his accent is, I don't know.
What does he look like now?
Not that it matters.
Gorgeous, he's stunning still. Why is does he look like now? Not that it matters. Getting married next week.
Gorgeous.
He's stunning still. Why is he brunette now?
I'm not into it.
The bomb is always fake.
I'm not into it.
I hate to crush your world around you.
So this was number two in New Zealand,
number one in Australia,
number one around the world.
Why not hit it?
Jesse McCartney, beautiful soul.
And he's a dad now.
And he's going to be a dad in August this year.
To your Friday flashback. Oh,. It's your Friday flashback.
Oh, yeah.
It's your Friday flashback.
Jesse McCartney, beautiful soul.
On to them.
You're a beautiful soul.
You're a beautiful soul.
It's your Friday flashback.
On to them.
Jesse McCartney, who this week it was announced
is going to be a dad for the first time.
Yeah, and now they're having a baby in August.
That doesn't make you feel old.
So, Georgia, he was your crush on the walls.
No, he was just one of them.
Like, he wasn't the, the man.
The man was Lando Bloom.
Really?
Oh, dude.
Seeing him as Legolas, I mean.
He made me Legolas.
So, I was thinking about this.
He made me absolutely Legolas.
I just looked up, like, 2000's heartthrobs,
because Jesse McCartney was like super,
everyone was into him.
He was a cutie.
Josh Hartnett.
Oh, I forgot about him.
Back in the day, Josh Hartnett.
Even now in the day, Josh Hartnett.
Chad Michael Murray.
Yes.

No, because he's hot.
No, you're thinking of...
Sean William Scott.
Sean Patrick Thomas.
What was he in?
Oh, Cruel Intentions.
That was him.
Oh, my God.
Yeah. I feel like, because we've been yawning about this off-air, Thomas. What was he in? Cruel Intentions. That was him. Oh my gosh.
I feel like, because we've been yarning about this off-air,
we should talk about our young
crushes, like celebrity
crushes. Like your crush growing up.
Yeah, who was your heartthrob when you were growing up?
Who was on the walls? Before I
went weird.
Before you went Marilyn Manson.
Honestly, and I was like, that's
hot. Weird. Still thinks of it weird. Before, honestly, and I was like, that's hot, weird.
Still thinks of it weird, what?
No, no, no.
It was the rib thing that got you there, wasn't it?
Yeah, but it was Josh Hartner.
I was like obsessed.
Josh Hartner had a lovely set of breasts.
I would have thought he would have been too clean for you.
You know, I turned filthy later in life.
Then I got weird, then I got into the rock and roll thing.
Like just too straight,
whitey.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, yeah, okay.
Yeah, yeah, too white.
He had a bit of rough.
He had a bit of rough.
Yeah.
He was a 240 grit sandpaper,
but there's a bit of rough there.

I don't care so much now.
He's with Katy Perry,

Oh my God, these cuties.
Okay, well,

He's all right.
Everyone's getting old.
Thanks for your call, Jordan.
Some messages in.
Someone said, why has no one said Tom Felton when he played Draco Malfoy?
Ultimate bad boy in the Harry Potter movies.
My sister loved him.
Yeah.
He seems cool, too, because he went really...
The guy who played Joff around Game of Thrones went like,
okay, I was the bad guy.
I don't want to do anything ever again.
Whereas Tom Felton's worked really hard to be like, you know I was the bad guy. I don't want to do anything ever again. Whereas Tom Fountains
worked really hard to be like,
you know that was just acting, I guess.
Yeah.
Someone messaged,
I was obsessed with Bam Majira.
Rascal from Jackass.
That's a unique take.
Yeah, and Nick Cannon.
You've got to be careful
because he will impregnate you.
He will, yeah.
Even if he looks at you.
He's highly fertile, that man.
Very great swimmers. Jason Beher from Ros you. He will, yeah. Even if he looks at you. He's highly fertile, that man. Very great swimmers.

you're a little bit randy
over a guess who character

that surprised

from people that find
furries or like
anime stuff.
Hey, I'm not here to yuck your yum.
Yeah.
But if you were going to do anyone.
Is your person making me hot in my underpants?
Yeah.
Someone else is coming in for the girl smurf.
Smurfette.
Smurfette.
Who calls her the girl smurf?
Her name is Smurfette.
Indicated in the name that she is the only female.
And good luck.
Good luck betting Smurfette when there's all those other Smurfs trying to as well.
Okay, both BuzzFeed and their website, joe.ie, is that Ireland?
Yeah.
Have done news articles where they rank every character from least to most horny in Guess Who?
And BuzzFeed have the mysterious men of Guess Who ranked by hotness.
Yes!
Hot.
The world's weird, eh?
It's not very weird.
The world's weird.
That's weird.
That's weird.
I read that
and for a second I was like,
wow, imagine having that thought
that no one else has had.
It's a Buzzfeed list.
It's a Buzzfeed list.
If you've thought of it,
Buzzfeed would probably
get a list about it.
There were a few hotties on there.
The bald dude with the red hair,
chubby fat face.
Yeah, I loved him.
Yeah.
Marie, she was a spicy gal.
Yeah, Marie.
Yeah, yeah.
She's into some
real dark stuff.
I'm trying to see
who they've called
the most horny.
Yeah, who's hornier?
There's 20-something of them.
I'm just getting down.
Alex is in at three.
Yeah, I remember Alex.
He's got the moustache.
No, that's Alex.
Susan with the big rosy cheeks
and the white hair and the big lips is number two. Yeah, because she's got the moustache. No, that's Alex. Susan with the big rosy cheeks and the white hair
and the big lips is number two.
Yeah, because she's got the big red lips.
Oh, it's him!
It's Bill!
It's the orange bald guy with the rosy cheeks.
Oh, yes!
Bill's the horniest.
Guess who most horny?
Bill's definitely like, yeah.
Someone just texted, what about Herman?
We can't forget about Herman.
But Bill's got, I'm just going to Thailand because I love the food.
Bill's blushing. Yeah, sour deca.
They say
sour deca.
Oh, sour deca. Capcun car.
Yeah, Capcun car. I'll have a beer.
Why don't you sit down with me?
Fact of the day is next.
We've all walked past Bill and Pukete.
Play ZM's
Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley. Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Play ZM's Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
Oh, I didn't like that. It ended with a little kiss.
I didn't mean to.
My mouth just got too stuck together.
So I was going to give you the 34 times the Fox comedy show The Simpsons predicted the future.
But Fletch has just tapped his watch and we haven't even started.
34? Oh my God.
I want to know these because it pops up all the time online.
Just pick some good ones. Okay, my God. I want to know these because it pops up all the time online. Just pick some good ones.
Okay, Trump presidency.
They predicted their Trump presidency in season 11, episode 17,
Bart to the Future.
You remember Lisa was the president?
Yes.
And she talked about we inherited.
She looked hot, by the way, when she was a president.
Is that a little something?
We're carrying on from what we were just talking about.
A little awakening for me too.
A little awakening.
Don't shut yourself off to women.
We inherited quite the budget crunch from President Trump.
Wow.
That's what she said.
They predicted Camilla Harris's purple pantsuit
in season also as well.
Same thing, same episode.
Correctly predicting Super Bowls,
season three, episode 14.
They predicted some Super Bowl wins.
They predicted Disney buying out 20th Century Fox
back in season 10,
which you'll be like, I mean,
the writing was on the cards for the last few years,
but this was in like-
90s.
Yeah, late 90s.
Wow.
They predicted that.
In season 17, episode 10, Homer's paternity coot,
there was a underwater submersible emergency situation
that happened in real life.
They did the submarine.
Yeah. Season six, Lisa's wedding, which was, again, one of in real life. They did the submarine. Yeah.
Season six, Lisa's wedding,
which was again one of the ones
where they looked to the future.
They predicted smart watches,
which at the time weren't kind of on the radar.
The watch we had at the time
would have been a calculator watch
and that would have been pretty cool.
Casio.
Season six, they also,
the same one they predicted auto-correcting
and messaging.
Yeah.
They had a thing of it changed to what you didn't want it to be
and it completely changed the message and you couldn't undo it.
So the FIFA corruption scandal and the World Cup results,
they've predicted that.
Matt Groening.
Groening.
Groening.
Has he come out to sort of say yes, you know, like we
are mythical
soothsayers? Yes.
Soothsayers, thank you.
Teenage witch.
Has he said anything
about it before? No.
It's just coincidental. I think the writers and everything
have said when you've got to come up with
constant references that don't
age out
because it takes a year
to make an episode
of The Simpsons.
Something will stick.
Something will stick.
They predicted the Siegfried
and Roy Tiger attack
back in season five,
episode 10,
Springfield,
when Mr. Burns
builds a casino
in Springfield
and then they hire
Siegfried and Roy
and then one of them
is attacked by the tiger,
which actually happened.
Yeah.
No, carry on.
I was going to say video chats.
That's in that one where Lisa's getting married as well.
They have like a video call years before
video call. Lady Gaga's Super Bowl
performance.
They kind of predicted before she did it that she'd do one
and then what she'd do in it.
As a bonus fact,
how many episodes of The Simpsons
are there in total
after all these years?
How many years?
That's what, yeah, 789.
781 episodes of The Simpsons as of January.
Wow.
No, end of December 2024.
I read a thing earlier.
If you sat down and watched them all,
no breaks, back to back, no ads.
It would go to the moon and back.
10 days.
Oh, that's quite the moon. 10 days. How long does it take to get to the moon and back. 10 days. Oh. That's not quite the moon.
10 days.
How long does it take to get to the moon?
I always think it's like two hours.
Do you know what I mean?
Like us to, like Auckland to Queenstown.
Yeah.
On a plane.
Well, you're going fast on a rocket.
Yeah.
No, it's a few days, isn't it?
Okay.
A few days to get to the moon?
Check ways.
Open ways.
What's the traffic like?
How long to get to the moon?
I think it's three days.
My guess is two
Three days
As with most things in life
The answer is it depends
During the Apollo program
The answer to most things in life
It depends
Yeah, three days
That was the fastest Apollo mission
To the moon was three days
Quick
Lovely Quick They also predicted COVID Do you remember the episode this Apollo mission to the moon was three days. Quick.
Lovely.
Quick.
They also predicted COVID.
Do you remember the episode where the thing came from a factory in China
and someone had coughed in it
and they opened it and there was a virus
and it spread throughout the space?
Actually, our sushi shop's just taken down the QR code.
Oh, we noticed that yesterday.
As would you two make a big bloody song and a dance
about the QR code every time you go in.
Because we always try to open up our cameras to log in.
Yeah, you are checking in.
Yeah.
To let the people know where you were if you had COVID-19.
Now it's turned into a sign about if you've got an allergy, let us know.
And they'll cater to you, which is nice.
Which is nice.
I think they were just sick of people on the floor after the peanut sushi.
Yeah, a peanut sushi was a rocker, though.
Oh, my God.
That nut sushi was my favourite sushi I've ever had.
Nut, nut sushi. It had its own jingle, remember? Yeah, nut, nut sushi. a rocker, though. Oh, my God. That nut sushi was my favorite sushi I've ever had. Nut, nut sushi.
It had its own jingle, remember?
Yeah, nut, nut sushi.
I go nuts over sushi.
Crunchy and ricey and delicious and sweet.
Nut, nut sushi.
Well, today's fact of the day and the final fact for the Simpsons week here at Fact of the Day
is that the Simpsons have predicted the future at least 34 times.
Fact of the day, day, day, day, day.
Might I plug?
You saw on Instagram yesterday, I put up a new,
I'm making a new show.
A new comedy show.
It's called The Baroness.
It's coming to the New Zealand
International Comedy Festival.
I can't give dates.
It's a soft launch.
But great poster.
Yeah, great poster.
Great poster.
Yeah, we love that.
But as part of making a new show,
I'm gigging a lot.
In a couple of weeks,
I'm doing six gigs in one week.
Now that's a problem.
That's fine.
We'll deal with that on that week.
Yep.
But I was gigging last night at the Classic in Auckland, Classic Comedy Club.
So you do this because then you can try out stuff.
Try out stuff.
In a small environment.
I thought when I went into a comedian do an hour, it was all sort of ad lib, ad hoc.
They talk about a lot of things and make it feel like it's the first time they've ever told the joke.
That's the ruse.
That's the lie.
That's why these big comedians
don't like people filming their
shows. Because they're touring the
whole world but it's the same show.
Some comedians will do jokes for like
10 years, the same little jokes.
Just keep pulling it out.
But last night I was doing some new stuff and
upstairs at this comedy
club, the venue's downstairs and upstairs is
the green room where the comedians hang out.
And I was looking down
and outside you can see this theatre
and there was lots of people
gathered outside the theatre.
They were heading to a show down there
and I saw a friend.
So I started taking photos
because I could see his phone on the table
and he was chatting to someone
and I started sending messages
being like, look up, look up, look up.
And I could see his phone going bing
and he ignored me.
He was ignoring me. Did he look and then look back? Yeah. Like he's like, oh, it's just Hayley. Chat, chat,, look up, look up. And I could see his phone going bing and he ignored me. He was ignoring me.
Did he look and then look back?
Yeah.
Like he's like, oh, it's just Hayley.
Chat, chat, chat, chat, chat.
Look down.
Chat, chat, chat.
No, but he might be like me.
He doesn't put the message on the preview.
Yeah, it wasn't the whole,
it just the little thing kept popping down.
So I kept saying, I kept messaging.
So that's even worse because he would see it pop up
saying new message from Hayley and he was like, ugh.
Yeah.
Not today.
He wouldn't have seen look up.
I know. Yeah. But then I, so then I was sending pictures of the top of his head.
Like this, being like, lol, lol, lol. I just wanted to
look up and say, hi, here I am. I'm up in the
green room. Meanwhile,
so I start sending these funny pictures
to my friend downstairs.
Meanwhile, Josh Thompson, beloved comedian
and great friend, friend of the show and friend
genuinely, he's on the other side of the green room
and he knows this person downstairs as well.
So he thought it would be a great idea
to take a photo of me taking a photo of the friend
and then he was going to start bombarding the friend.
It was going to be a little fun game.
A little triangle.
What Tomo didn't anticipate,
he's in a slow-mo way,
he turns his camera towards me
to take a photo of me taking a photo
of our friend. He goes to
poise his thumb like this. At the time
that I think it's funny, I'm going to flash the friend
downstairs because he's looked up. He's seen
me. He's looked up and he starts to wave. I think
this is funny. I'm going to flash the boobs.
Great laugh. Homosexual friend down there. We're in a safe
zone. I was going to say, if it was a male
comedian in New Zealand, there's an 85% chance
it's a homosexual.
Josh Thompson,
not a homosexual.
So Josh's finger... Well, hey, let's just...
Yet.
Not put a label on him.
Yet.
Josh's finger
hits the button
as my top goes up.
And if you know Josh Thompson,
this is his response.
Ha!
Oh no!
Oh no no!
Oh no no no!
I was like, what?
He said,
I just took a photo of you.
I just took a photo of your boobs.
The poor guy, he took a photo of my boobies on the side
and he felt terrible.
He was like, I'm just going to delete this.
And then he panics.
He has a little Tom-o-ziety
and then accidentally uploads it to social media.
It was very like, he was just trying to just take a little photo.
No, what he did, he did the right thing.
He said, I'm going to send this to you,
and then I'm going to delete it,
and then I'm going to delete it from my deleted.
So he sent me the pic so that I could see it
and have a good laugh at it.
But then he was like,
I want absolutely nothing to do with it.
So there you go, Tom.
I got a little bit of a,
it became a sort of unwilling green room pervert
for a moment in time through no fault of his own.
If anyone's in the wrong
it would probably be you
in public flashing.
Yeah.
I might message him
saying,
hey,
why have you uploaded
a photo of Hayley flashing
to your Instagram account?
No, that's,
that will.
Why is this photo
of Hayley
everywhere?
Everywhere on the internet.
Yeah,
attached to your profile.
What are you doing?
The Herald Journal's
know I know you
So they've asked
Oh my god
Could you imagine the anxiety?
Play ZM's Fletchborn and Hayley
Okay
Am I the only one
That when emptying a dehumidifier
Thinks
I wonder what that water tastes like
And want to have a little
Just a little
Just as you're pouring it, wherever you pour it.
I don't know if you water your house with it
or pour it just down a sink or into the toilet or whatever or outside.
But when you're pouring it, if you just think,
just a little tongue under it.
Does it taste dusty?
No, I've never.
Does it taste like the room it's in?
Does it taste like the washing that was next to it?
Could have been.
Or that skin, yeah.
Yeah, because we only use ours and our wardrobe doesn't have any,
like, well, wardrobes don't.
Windows.
Yeah, and it can get, it's on the south side of the house,
which makes it sound like I've got a big house,
but it's just the side of the house that gets the coldest
because it doesn't get direct sun as much.
Yeah.
So we run a dehumidifier in there, not as much over summer,
but over winter.
But the other day I was like, I chucked it on
and then it ended emptying yesterday and I was pouring it out and i was like yeah i was gonna
lick it but then i was like no i wouldn't you wouldn't i have this thought with my condenser
dryer with the where it holds the water yep and i pull it i slide it out of the thing to to dump it
in the sink next to it and i think in, in an emergency, I know in my head,
oh, we're all right because we've got the water in the dryer.
But that water...
Do you know what I mean?
I mean, clothes rinse off the detergent and stuff,
but in my mind, that might be a little detergenty.
But it's the steam from the dryer.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's the steam from the wet clothes.
And it condenses it and collects it.
Yeah.
And part of me, I do think, oh, I could drink that.
I just pour it in the sink.
Yeah, same.
But I'm always like, maybe I should be using it to water plant
or like, well, you should walk outside and sprinkle it on your garden.
Yeah, it is wasteful.
I don't have a garden.
It's just dirt and weeds.
Maybe you've got trees and shrubs and stuff.
Yeah, you could.
I could shrub them.
Or the lawn.
I could use it.
Yeah, and the lawn's getting dry.
Yeah.
I don't want to drink it.
Never wanted to drink it.
No, do you know what's funny about you saying that
is that Cam Antle used to do the night show.
He tricked me for like a solid month
that he was drinking his.
I believed him.
Yuck.
And I was like, wait, he's like,
it's actually really good for you.
Like, read about it.
And I was like, wait.
It's really good for you.
I've done my own research.
What?
Oh, wow.
But he just, he can keep a deadpan face.
I believed it for a solid month.
Yeah.
I think people in general would say it would be bad for you.
Yeah.
But I would go in a civil emergency and our water supplies are off
and we can't access water.
You'd boil it.
I'm thirsty.
I'd boil it and I'd use it, sure.
So someone asked, can I use my dehumidifier water for plants?
The water collected by a dehumidifier can be used for non-potable purposes
such as watering plants,
cleaning flushing toilets,
but not drinking apparently.
Cleaning the toilet?
The toilet's already
got its own water?
Yeah, but maybe if you're,
I don't know.
Are you drinking the toilet water
in the event of an emergency?
From the top you can.
No, the cisterns are yuck.
I wouldn't.
Check in the,
clean your cistern regularly
if you want to do that.
Do you clean your cistern?
No, I would if I wanted to drink out of it, though.
Oh.
Because, yeah.
I'm just saying in desperate moments,
I'm drinking my dryer condenser fluid.
Okay.
Is that your civil defence emergency plan?
We don't have any kind of emergency pack or anything,
but I know that's there.
Yeah, we don't either, actually, now that I think about it.
Okay, so it's not...
We did once but Aaron ate all the muesli bars.
Yeah, but when you're in need of a little goods like that,
you can't go past the muesli bar.
I just imagine some volcano erupts or something happens
or some flood and then you go in to get your emergency supplies.
I'm starving.
Yeah.
All the supermarkets are shut.
Aaron, I thought we had muesli bars in here
and he's like, I ate a dim.
I wanted a little snack years
ago. So
upon further research, I don't think I will.
Okay. Because dehumidifier water
contains bacteria and fungus and
they've tested it and it's quite like if you did it
put a thing in it and did a petri dish of it
you'd get some big growth.
Some funky things. Because of the coils that
cool the water that causes it to
turn from humidity
in the air into water and then drop down,
unless you're cleaning those regularly.
And no one's cleaning those.
Aren't we sucking up the water that's stopping
our clothes going mouldy?
So, I don't know if it's going to be
that great. So, my advice would be
boil it for three minutes.
I'm glad that we've answered the big question.
Should you drink the water out of your dryer and your dehumidifier?
We don't know.
There could be a tsunami this weekend.
And we've actually saved a lot of people.
Well, that's not a problem because there'll be water everywhere.
Yeah, well, there's too much water.
Too much water.
You can't be drinking that.
You'd have to put your dehumidifier outside.
To suck up all the water.
To suck up all the seawater.
But you're still not drinking that.
I would because it takes the salt out of it.
True.
Oh, I'm busting for a wheeze after that podcast, I'll tell you.
It's a podcast.
You are allowed to listen to it while you're wheeze.
There's no rules on when and where you're allowed to listen to a podcast.
It just says here I'm busting for a wheeze.
I read it, okay?
I read it.
Give us a review.
